Vogue Promotes Hiking With Dead Animal Skins And High Heels

The current article you are reading does not reflect the views of the current editors and contributors of the new Ecorazzi

The October issue of Vogue magazine features a Mongolian goat, coyote, and fox out in the wilds of the desert. Unfortunately, they’ve been gutted and replaced by models. In high heels.

We’re pretty sure — as they were electrocuted or agonizingly dying stuck in a trap somewhere — that this was not the end these animals had in mind.

As FashionIndie points out, this month’s issue was put together by Marie Amelie-Sauve — on loan from French Vogue. Back in July, controversy erupted over French Vogue’s depiction of a protest by an animal-rights group in a photo shoot for fur. So, one can safely assume they’re certainly on the offensive to get fur back into the spotlight of the fashion industry. And they’re bringing the battle stateside. Ugh.

When we reject human injustice, nobody needs to go on a “journey” to get to that point. Where animals are concerned, we’re all too eager to pack the car, don the sunglasses and go for ride before we see the truth of what has been in front of us the entire time.
